Not trawling looking for small mistakes, and not meaning to offend - just
trying to help you & others. People volunteer to help others in these
groups, so if you make it easy for people to help you, you'll get more help.
SBS does things differently, note, so the SBS groups are usually the best
place to go esp. for setup issues and questions - if you crosspost to the
other groups, everyone, including you, has to look at only one thread.
